”Tonight, in this same place, the last light of day caresses the face of this singular palace and finishes setting it ablaze under a sky draped in purple and gold. A majestic heron unfurls its silver-strewn coat. The Sun God will soon be engulfed in the sacred womb of Nut. This is the time when the windows open to an expected breeze, coming from across the Holy River. Where the air seems to be perfumed with eternity. It’s time for nostalgia, secrets, passions, Leopard and Lions. Time to be elated by the star field in search of the Gold Scarab and the keys to the Cosmos. By now, he is pulling the night behind him waiting for the new dawn”
